The Hold Steady - Citrus lyrics
[The Hold Steady - Citrus lyrics]
I love it when you touch each other
Hey whiskey, hey ginger
I come to you with rigid fingers
I see Judas in the hard eyes
Of the boys working the corners
I feel Jesus in the clumsiness
Of young and awkward lovers
Hey barroom, hey tavern
I find hope in all the souls you gather
Hey citrus, hey liquor
I love it when we come together
I feel Jesus in the clumsiness
Of young and awkward lovers
I feel Judas in the long odds
Of the rackets on the corners
I feel Jesus in the tenderness of honest
Nervous lovers
I feel Judas in the pistols and the
Pagers that come with all the powders
Lost in fog and love and faithless fear
I've had kisses that make Judas seem sincere
